Padraic Colum's classic retelling combines the immortal stories from Homer's Iliad and Odyssey into one glorious saga of heroism and magical adventure. Come voyage to ancient Greece with Achilles who, guided by the gods, seeks vengeance on the Trojans. And follow Odysseus on his perilous journey—through the land of the Cyclops, past Circe the Enchantress, the terrible Charybdis, and the six-headed serpent Scylla.
